Combine the egg whites, sugar and coconut flakes in a saucepan and stir over medium low heat.
Cook for 8-12 minutes until your moist mixture suddenly becomes drier. It will go from looking like this…
To looking drier like this. Then add in the vanilla and chocolate chips and mix well. Transfer to a bowl and cover. Place in fridge to cool for 30 minutes.
Once cooled, remove from fridge and scoop balls onto a prepared baking sheet. Use parchment paper or a Silpat mat on your pan to prevent them from sticking. Bake for 30 minutes at 300 degrees. Cookies will be firm to the touch once they are done.
Cool completely on the baking sheet and then transfer to an airtight container or freeze them! Print the recipe below or pin it to save it for later!
